- Figure 1 is a flowchart of a preferred method of the present invention for updating product location information in a planogram.
- a planogram updating system of the preferred embodiment comprises a retail system, a portable shopper device having a location sensing means and an RFID reader, and one or more product RFID shelf labels positioned in the retail environment.
- a retail system as used herein typically comprises a server and a database having product information and storage to collect information received from said portable shopper device.
- a retail system would also include checkout stations (also used as point of sale devices (POS)), each consisting of a scanner and a terminal comprising till (cash register), display, printer, card reader, and electronic tag deactivation sensor, each of which is in communication with the database containing product information.
- checkout stations also used as point of sale devices (POS)
- POS point of sale devices
- the scanner operates by detecting conventional bar codes, printed on purchased items, and passes these to a main server computer across the retailer's network which is in communication with a database storing bar codes, prices and product names.
- the database also stores, via table or relational association, which products are designated as having an electronic tag.
- a portable shopper device comprises computer-based processing means, a display, a scanner, a memory, and a location sensing means.
- the location sensing means may include a location tracking system such as that involving a GPS type of sensing system, a location sensing mechanism capable of identifying the location of the shopper device and transmitting the location information to networked server in the retail environment, a location sensing device capable of receiving electronic location information transmitted from an electronic label such as an RFID shelf label (i.e., an RFID reader), or a location sensing device that is able to interpret known reference location points within the physical retail environment and determine the coordinate point of reference for where the shopper device is located within the retail environment.
- a location tracking system such as that involving a GPS type of sensing system
- a location sensing mechanism capable of identifying the location of the shopper device and transmitting the location information to networked server in the retail environment
- a location sensing device capable of receiving electronic location information transmitted from an electronic label such as an RFID shelf label (i.
- the location means is also able to engage in wireless communication with a server of the retail environment to transmit location information of the shopper device at a predetermined rate, such that the retailer is in essence able to track the consumer and trigger product alerts to the consumer based upon the consumer's location in proximity to certain products being highlighted by the retailer. Additionally, based upon the product promotion listing held by the retailer (resident within the shopper device or within the retail system), triggering information may be communicated to shelf labels or advertisement labels, associated with certain products located at specific points within the retail environment, such that a consumer is informed of a promotion at the consumer approaches certain predetermined products.
- the shopper device also comprises an activation trigger and a keypad, though such are not necessary.
- the activation means may be a swipe card mag strip or similar so a consumer may activate a hand held portable shopper device by swiping their loyalty card and thereby activating the device while communicating their presence with the retail system server.
- One aspect of this system is the maintenance and updating of a "customer shopping profile" in a memory of the hand-held device.
- a "purchase record" containing item names, quantities and numeric codes may be built up during shopping and used to facilitate checkout and also as a basis for updating the contents of the profile memory.
- the shopper device also transmits location information of the shopper's location (based on the location of the shopper device) to the server of the retail system.
- location information based on the location of the shopper device
- the server indicating location of the consumer.
- this location transmission may be concurrent with the transmission of a request for assistance, or scanned product information from the shopper device to the server.
- the shopper device may also detect the electronic transmission of an RFID shelf label and communicate receipt of such information to the retail system.
- a further part of the retail system includes at least one or more product RFID shelf tags (i.e., shelf labels capable of emitting electronic signals) placed in relation to the products they identify. While presently retailers employ information labels on the shelves to identify information (e.g., price, price per unit weight) for the product on the shelf, these basic labels are unable to engage in electronic communication.
- the present invention preferably adds RFID tags to these labels and for each shelf label the RFID tag contains a unique identifier which can be read with an RFID reader.
- the RFID shelf labels also have a location sensing device similar to that described previously such that the RFID label is able to detect the presence of the shopper device, or the removal of an product having an electronic label and communicate receipt of such information back to the retail system.
- a retail environment comprises product shelf labels that are all RFID product shelf labels.
- Figure 1 is a flowchart of a preferred method wherein the retail staff walk around the store with a personal shopper device having an RFID reader wherein the retail staff scan all the RFID shelf labels in the retail environment (110); as each RFID label is scanned by the personnel using the RFID reader, the software means acts to collect the scanned information and analyze the collected information (120); the read RFID information includes the current location of the RFID reader using the location sensing device (130); the software means is able to then identify the unique identifier transmitted by the RFID shelf label (via the read RFID information) (140); and the location information of the item identified by the read RFID information is compared with the prior location information of the requisite item, and updated if there is a difference (150); once all RFID labels have been read, in effect the software means has updated the planogram (160) such that an updated planogram is available to the retailer for further use (170). Thereafter, the updated planogram information may be used as the initial planogram in which additional collected information may be compared with for the next time the store personnel elect to update their planogram.
- a consumer's actions may in effect assist in updating the planogram.
- the retail system be it from the RFID label location means or shopper device location means (e.g., the RFID reader on the device) operated by either store personnel or a consumer
- the database (either located in the personal shopper device or the retail system) collects the received information and compares the received information to the initial planogram information resident. If there is an discrepancy or difference between the initial information of the planogram and that received, the planogram is updated to reflect the most recent information, and the updated planogram is stored in the database for future comparison with future information collected.
- the term shopper and consumer is not intended to limit the invention to use only by purchasers, but rather is used to simply exemplify a particular implementation; as used herein, the terms shopper, consumer, retailer, retail staff and grocer are intended to be used interchangeable
- the present invention could be used to create a partial update of a planogram or a routine update of a planogram in a retail environment.
- the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and it is understood by those skilled in the art that other configuration(s) in view of the invention are also possible.
- the present invention may be implemented for retailers, grocers, and even discount centers having products that are identifiable by a scannable label, however, the present invention is not intended to be limited to only these implementations.
